Buffalo nickels, issued by the United States Mint from 1913 to 1938, feature a Native American on the obverse and an American bison on the reverse. The 1923 Philadelphia mint issue is particularly sought after by collectors for its historical significance and design. Minted in nickel, the Buffalo nickel is valued for both its numismatic appeal and its cultural representation of early 20th-century America. The Philadelphia mint mark is absent on coins produced there, distinguishing them from those minted in Denver or San Francisco.
